Rotisserie Pillars

Anticipation for the new season is abundant. As the creative juices of the ol' blog percolate on the hot stove, we should have a few blog posts in the next several days. This is just a collection of quick notes to, as the dude would say, keep our minds nimble...

Nate McLouth might be a platoon partner loser. Melky Cabrera is supposed to be the platoon partner for Matt Diaz, but I think there's a good chance that McLouth sits versus southpaws.

From the skewed perception of my scouting beliefs, these are the guys I suggest as the best bets or most undervalued players in typical fantasy drafts/auctions... (Average Draft Position, according to CBS Sports roto drafts, in parenthesis)

Ian Stewart, 2b/3b (ADP: 127)

Alexei Ramirez, SS (#129)

Ryan Zimmerman, 3b (#35)

Jorge Cantu, 1b/3b (#183)

Nelson Cruz, OF (#86)

CB Young, OF (#245)

Felix Hernandez, SP (#25)

Clayton Kershaw, SP (#80)

Diasuke Matsuzaka, SP (#201)

Ricky Nolasco, SP (#112)

Stephen Strasburg, SP (#196)

Matt Capps, RP (#208)

Matt Lindstrom, RP (#224)

Mike Gonzalez, RP (#188)

Brad Lidge, RP (#192)

From the what will they think of next dept... Corey Patterson is a free agent.
